School registration scheduled

July 28, 1998

The Washington County Board of Education has set aside Wednesday for registration for students attending public schools. Registration will be held in each school during regular hours.

To register children at the schools within their attendance areas, parents and guardians must provide each child's birth certificate, proof of immunization, Social Security number and proof of Washington County residency.

Maryland state law requires any child who will be 5 years old on or before Dec. 31 to enroll in kindergarten, with certain exceptions.

Information on registration may be obtained by contacting each school's principal or the office of Martha Roulette at 301-766-2961.

Information on waivers for kindergarten attendance is available from Ralph Kline at 301-766-2936.

The first day of school for the 1998-99 school year is Monday, Aug. 31.
